This takes *ages* to run. -j 4 controls the number of processes to use; 4 should be OK for a single-processor machine, since most of the time they'll be waiting for network results to arrive. If you have adequate RAM and don't mind the load, you can use -j 6 or -j 8}. There's not much benefit in going higher than -j 8.
If you have an unusual network layout, you may need to specify
trusted_networks in the spamassassin/user_prefs file. But SA should be able to infer it in most cases. If you get less than a 10% or 15% spam hit rate for RCVD_IN_XBL, then you might need to use trusted_networks.
